Hall of the World's Ugliest Corvette
Harley Earl screenshotis turning over in his grave. Thank the big dealership in the sky that the man who designed the Corvette—and, in doing so, created America's first sports car—didn't live to see this day. For "Buckeye," one aesthetically rambunctious driver, has taken a 1985 model of Earl's lean, mean driving machine and coated it bumper-to-bumper with checks, stripes, and a bucket seat worth of cartoon characters. Mickey Mouse smirks from the left rear, crash-test dummies grin from the passenger side door, and Pokémon beams off the hood. Not even the engine escapes the attention of its brash, paintbrush-wielding proprietor. However, it should be noted that Buckeye claims to get quite a few dates from motoring around town in this baby. It is a Corvette, after all. (in Automotive)
